[Verse 1]
I met a woman long ago
Her hair the black that black can go
Are you a teacher of the heart?
Soft, she answered no
[Verse 2]
I met a girl across the sea
Her hair the gold that gold can be
Are you a teacher of the heart?
Yes, but not for thee
[Verse 3]
I met a man who lost his mind
In some lost place I had to find
"Follow me," the wise man said
But he walked behind
[Verse 4]
I walked into a hospital
Where none was sick and none was well
When at night the nurses left
I could not walk at all
[Verse 5]
Morning came and then came noon
Dinner time a scalpel blade
Lay beside my silver spoon
I met a woman long ago
Her hair the black that black can go
Are you a teacher of the heart?
Soft, she answered no
[Verse 2]
I met a girl across the sea
Her hair the gold that gold can be
Are you a teacher of the heart?
Yes, but not for thee
[Verse 3]
I met a man who lost his mind
In some lost place I had to find
"Follow me," the wise man said
But he walked behind
[Verse 4]
I walked into a hospital
Where none was sick and none was well
When at night the nurses left
I could not walk at all
[Verse 5]
Morning came and then came noon
Dinner time a scalpel blade
Lay beside my silver spoon
